A beautiful, half-mad bride desperately running from her husband -- a trail of murder that leads halfway across America and twenty years back into the past -- an iron-willed matriarch -- an amorous French instructress -- a Las Vegas blackmailer -- a strange voice from the past screaming: "I'm going to kill you." One of the most baffling, brilliant, shocking thrillers written by the author of THE GOODBYE LOOK. (from the back cover)
